Hello there,

I've been researching my family history for a couple of years, and my maternal ancestors(Neighbour family) were born and brought up in and around Lordship Lane and Frogley Road. Numbers 7, 9, and 11 Frogley Road. I used to visit an aunt there up to about 20 years ago, her name was Florence Puncher,(nee Neighbour) her husband was Vic. I'm not after any specific information, just interested to know if anyone remembers them, or anything of any interest!! I believe the family were there for some years. Florences father Sidney Richard Neighbour was killed in the great war, his father was William, and he was a timber merchant in the area, sometime around 1880.

Any general info would be brilliant, thankyou...........................

I've just had a look at some posts about the dulwich war memorial. Sidney Richard(above) was in the 3rd battalion rifle brigade, prince own consort. Im presuming that he enlisted in East dulwich barracks. Would that be right do you think?

Will keep looking through. Great Forum.

    • Because of the weather which delayed completion with roofer only being able to work certain days, it was up from November - end of January. Went slightly higher than gutters (we also had guttering replaced).
    • It's tough being a courier and the pay which is largely based on the number they deliver is miserable. Hence the staff turnover is high. EFRI was previously branded as HERMES but they had to create a new brand name because of poor performance. We get regular courier deliveries and EVRI are by far the worst. They just drop the parcel at the front door - often without ringing the bell. But worst is when they deliver to the equivalent door number on LL instead of ours on EDG. Best are ParcelForce, DHL and DPD by a wide margin.
    • I know the couple you mean, and she has always been friendly and smiley when delivering to me, but obviously in a hurry, for all the reasons outlined in the thread. My gate is always open, however (unless someone coming to the house closes it when they leave). I can't see the point of gates that have to be opened and shut again every time someone comes to the house. It just seems a waste of time, and it's annoying if you are carrying stuff. And a closed gate  conveys a sort of "my house is my fortress" feel. To me, anyway.
    • Thanks for posting this. Really interesting. It would be good if you added a star rating, so that it was easier to do comparisons / see what your top recommendations are. Great blog though!
